In the manual Error during the RRD conversion, we try to collect and document some common issues during the conversion of pnp4nagios. As we can't document all the issues, we offer a way to debug that here.

LAST TESTED ON CHECKMK 2.0.0P1



XMLLINT parses xml files and can give you a detailed error. 

Step-by-step guide

  1. Install xmllint

    root@linux# apt -y install libxml2-util
  2. Run that for loop with xmllint and some debug as site user. This command will also write the result to a file called xmllint.log.

    root@linux# su - mysite
    OMD[mysite]:~$ for i in $(find ~/var/pnp4nagios/perfdata/ -name "*xml"); do echo "#####$i####"; xmllint  --debug  --format $i; echo "#####" ;done &> xmllint.log
  3. With the parameter --noout, xmllint will show you only the errors and not the whole structure of the xml files.

    root@linux# su - mysite
    OMD[mysite]:~$ for i in $(find ~/var/pnp4nagios/perfdata/ -name "*xml"); do echo "#####$i####"; xmllint  --noout --debug  --format $i; echo "#####" ;done &> xmllint_only_debug.log
  4. Check if we already provide a solution here: Error during the RRD conversion.

  5. If there is no solution, you can open a support case and provide us with the log. Then we can analyze that.
